Description

フッ化ビニリデン重合体溶液Vinylidene fluoride polymer solution
 本発明は、フッ化ビニリデン重合体溶液に関する。 The present invention relates to a vinylidene fluoride polymer solution.
 フッ化ビニリデン重合体は、その耐候性、耐薬品性が優れること等から、幅広い用途に使用されている。ただし、フッ化ビニリデン重合体は、一般的な溶剤に溶解し難い。そのため、塗料やコーティング剤等、フッ化ビニリデン重合体を溶解させる必要がある場合には、溶媒としてN-メチルピロリドン(NMP)やアセトンが使用されている。 Vinylidene fluoride polymers are used in a wide range of applications due to their excellent weather resistance and chemical resistance. However, vinylidene fluoride polymers are difficult to dissolve in common solvents. Therefore, N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) and acetone are used as solvents when it is necessary to dissolve a vinylidene fluoride polymer, such as paints and coating agents.
 しかしながら、アセトンは引火点や沸点が低く、取り扱いが難しい。一方、NMPはフッ化ビニリデン重合体を容易に溶解させることが可能であり、かつ高沸点であるが、近年その毒性が懸念され、法的な規制が厳しくなっている。一方、フッ化ビニリデン重合体を溶解させることが可能な溶媒として、ヘキサメチルホスホルアミド、ジメチルスルホキシドも知られている。しかしながら、これらの溶媒も比較的凝固点が高いこと等から、取り扱いが容易とはいえない。 However, acetone has a low flash point and boiling point and is difficult to handle. On the other hand, NMP can easily dissolve the vinylidene fluoride polymer and has a high boiling point, but in recent years its toxicity has become a concern, and legal regulations have become stricter. On the other hand, hexamethylphosphoramide and dimethylsulfoxide are also known as solvents capable of dissolving vinylidene fluoride polymers. However, since these solvents also have relatively high freezing points, they cannot be said to be easy to handle.
 ここで、特許文献1には、アクリル樹脂およびフッ化ビニリデン重合体を、シクロヘキサノン等に溶解させた塗料用組成物が記載されている。 Here, Patent Document 1 describes a paint composition in which an acrylic resin and a vinylidene fluoride polymer are dissolved in cyclohexanone or the like.
特開平3-220272号公報JP-A-3-220272
 しかしながら、本発明者らが鋭意検討したところ、上記特許文献1に記載のフッ化ビニリデン重合体は、単独で溶媒に溶解させようとすると、溶媒への溶解性が十分でなく、溶解に非常に時間がかかることが明らかとなった。つまり、従来の技術では、環境への負荷が少なく、かつ取り扱い性が良好な溶媒に、フッ化ビニリデン重合体を溶解させることは非常に難しかった。 However, as a result of intensive studies by the present inventors, the vinylidene fluoride polymer described in Patent Document 1 does not have sufficient solubility in a solvent when it is tried to be dissolved in a solvent by itself, and it is very difficult to dissolve. It became clear that it would take time. In other words, it has been very difficult with conventional techniques to dissolve a vinylidene fluoride polymer in a solvent that is less harmful to the environment and is easy to handle.
 本発明は、上記課題を鑑みてなされたものである。環境への負荷が少なく、かつ取り扱いが容易な溶媒に、フッ化ビニリデン重合体が溶解したフッ化ビニリデン重合体溶液の提供を目的とする。 The present invention has been made in view of the above problems. An object of the present invention is to provide a vinylidene fluoride polymer solution in which a vinylidene fluoride polymer is dissolved in a solvent that is easy to handle and has a low environmental load.
 本発明は、フッ化ビニリデン重合体と、溶媒とを含むフッ化ビニリデン重合体溶液であり、前記溶媒は分子量100以上であり、かつエーテル、ケトン、およびエステルから選択される少なくとも1種の構造を有する親和性溶媒を含み、前記フッ化ビニリデン重合体は、以下の(A)~(C)を満たす、フッ化ビニリデン重合体溶液を提供する。
 (A)フッ化ビニリデン由来の構成単位と、含フッ素アルキルビニル化合物由来の構成単位と、を含有する
 (B)ASTM D3418に準拠した示差走査熱量測定により得られるDSC曲線の60℃以上100℃未満の範囲に、ピークトップを有する
 (C)X線回折測定により得られるX線回折パターンにおいて、回折角度が10°以上19.9°以下の範囲に少なくとも1つの極大値を有し、回折角度22.5°以上30°以下の範囲における最大回折強度が、回折角度10°以上19.9°以下の範囲における最大回折強度以下である
The present invention is a vinylidene fluoride polymer solution containing a vinylidene fluoride polymer and a solvent, wherein the solvent has a molecular weight of 100 or more and at least one structure selected from ethers, ketones, and esters. and the vinylidene fluoride polymer provides a vinylidene fluoride polymer solution that satisfies the following (A) to (C).
(A) contains a structural unit derived from vinylidene fluoride and a structural unit derived from a fluorine-containing alkyl vinyl compound; (C) In the X-ray diffraction pattern obtained by X-ray diffraction measurement, the diffraction angle has at least one maximum in the range of 10 ° or more and 19.9 ° or less, and the diffraction angle is 22 .The maximum diffraction intensity in the range of 5° or more and 30° or less is less than or equal to the maximum diffraction intensity in the diffraction angle range of 10° or more and 19.9° or less.
 本発明によれば、環境への負荷が少なく、かつ取り扱いが容易な溶媒に、フッ化ビニリデン重合体が溶解したフッ化ビニリデン重合体溶液が得られる。 According to the present invention, it is possible to obtain a vinylidene fluoride polymer solution in which a vinylidene fluoride polymer is dissolved in a solvent that is easy to handle and has a low environmental load.
図1は、本願の実施例で調製したフッ化ビニリデン重合体A~Gについて、X線回折測定を行ったときのX線回折パターンである。FIG. 1 is an X-ray diffraction pattern of the vinylidene fluoride polymers A to G prepared in Examples of the present application when X-ray diffraction measurement was performed.
 前述のように、一般的なフッ化ビニリデン重合体は、例えばエーテルやケトン、エステル等のような、環境への負荷が少なく、比較的取り扱いが容易な溶媒に溶解させることが難しかった。これに対し、本発明のフッ化ビニリデン重合体溶液では、後述の要件(A)~(C)を満たすフッ化ビニリデン重合体と、分子量が100以上であり、かつエーテル、ケトン、およびエステルから選択される少なくとも1種の構造を有する親和性溶媒を含む溶媒とを組み合わせる。これにより、フッ化ビニリデン重合体を上記溶媒に容易に溶解させることが可能となり、かつその安定性も良好になる。以下、当該フッ化ビニリデン重合体溶液における各成分について説明する。 As mentioned above, it is difficult to dissolve common vinylidene fluoride polymers in solvents such as ethers, ketones, esters, etc., which have a low environmental impact and are relatively easy to handle. On the other hand, in the vinylidene fluoride polymer solution of the present invention, a vinylidene fluoride polymer that satisfies the requirements (A) to (C) described later and a molecular weight of 100 or more and selected from ethers, ketones, and esters is combined with a solvent comprising an affinity solvent having at least one structure that is As a result, the vinylidene fluoride polymer can be easily dissolved in the solvent, and its stability is improved. Each component in the vinylidene fluoride polymer solution will be described below.
 ・フッ化ビニリデン重合体
 本発明のフッ化ビニリデン重合体溶液が含むフッ化ビニリデン重合体は、フッ化ビニリデンに由来する構成単位と、含フッ素アルキルビニル化合物由来の構成単位と、を含有する(要件(A))。
· Vinylidene fluoride polymer The vinylidene fluoride polymer contained in the vinylidene fluoride polymer solution of the present invention contains a structural unit derived from vinylidene fluoride and a structural unit derived from a fluorine-containing alkyl vinyl compound (requirements (A)).
 フッ化ビニリデン重合体は、少なくともフッ化ビニリデン由来の構造と、一種または二種以上の含フッ素アルキルビニル化合物由来の構造とを含んでいればよく、フッ化ビニリデンと含フッ素アルキルビニル化合物との二元系共重合体であってもよく、フッ化ビニリデンと含フッ素アルキルビニル化合物と、さらに他の化合物との三元系共重合体であってもよい。また、これらの共重合体にポリマー改質剤等の添加物を加えたものでもよい。ただし、フッ化ビニリデン重合体の全構造単位に対して、フッ化ビニリデン由来の構造単位と含フッ素アルキルビニル化合物由来の構造単位とを合計で、90質量%以上含むことが好ましく、95質量%以上含むことがより好ましく、97質量%以上含むことがさらに好ましい。フッ化ビニリデン由来の構造単位と、含フッ素アルキルビニル化合物由来の構造単位との合計量が当該範囲であると、フッ化ビニリデン重合体の後述の溶媒に対する溶解性が高まりやすい。 The vinylidene fluoride polymer may contain at least a vinylidene fluoride-derived structure and one or more fluorine-containing alkylvinyl compound-derived structures. It may be a primary copolymer, or a terpolymer of vinylidene fluoride, a fluorine-containing alkyl vinyl compound, and another compound. In addition, additives such as polymer modifiers may be added to these copolymers. However, the total amount of structural units derived from vinylidene fluoride and structural units derived from a fluorine-containing alkylvinyl compound is preferably 90% by mass or more, preferably 95% by mass or more, relative to all structural units of the vinylidene fluoride polymer. More preferably, it contains 97% by mass or more. When the total amount of the vinylidene fluoride-derived structural unit and the fluorine-containing alkyl vinyl compound-derived structural unit is within the above range, the solubility of the vinylidene fluoride polymer in the solvent described below tends to increase.
 ここで、フッ化ビニリデン由来の構造単位と含フッ素アルキルビニル化合物由来の構造単位との合計を100質量%とした場合、フッ化ビニリデン重合体中のフッ化ビニリデン由来の構造単位の量は、40~75質量%が好ましく、51~70質量%がより好ましい。55~68質量%がさらに好ましい。フッ化ビニリデン重合体中のフッ化ビニリデン由来の構造単位の量が40質量%以上であると、フッ化ビニリデン由来の物性が発現しやすくなる。一方、フッ化ビニリデン重合体中のフッ化ビニリデン由来の構造単位の量が75質量%以下であると、含フッ素アルキルビニル化合物由来の構造の量が十分に多くなり、後述の溶媒に対する溶解性が高まりやすい。なお、フッ化ビニリデン重合体中のフッ化ビニリデン由来の構造単位の量は、例えば19F-NMRによる分析等によって特定可能である。 Here, when the total of the structural units derived from vinylidene fluoride and the structural units derived from the fluorine-containing alkyl vinyl compound is 100% by mass, the amount of the structural units derived from vinylidene fluoride in the vinylidene fluoride polymer is 40%. ~75% by mass is preferable, and 51 to 70% by mass is more preferable. 55 to 68% by mass is more preferable. When the amount of structural units derived from vinylidene fluoride in the vinylidene fluoride polymer is 40% by mass or more, physical properties derived from vinylidene fluoride are likely to be exhibited. On the other hand, when the amount of structural units derived from vinylidene fluoride in the vinylidene fluoride polymer is 75% by mass or less, the amount of the structure derived from the fluorine-containing alkyl vinyl compound is sufficiently increased, and the solubility in the solvent described below is increased. easy to rise. The amount of vinylidene fluoride-derived structural units in the vinylidene fluoride polymer can be identified by, for example, 19 F-NMR analysis.
 一方、フッ化ビニリデン由来の構造単位と含フッ素アルキルビニル化合物由来の構造単位との合計を100質量%とした場合、フッ化ビニリデン重合体中の含フッ素アルキルビニル化合物由来の構造単位の量は、25~60質量%が好ましく、30~49質量%がより好ましく、32~45質量%がさらに好ましい。フッ化ビニリデン重合体中の含フッ素アルキル化合物由来の構造単位の量が25質量%以上であると、後述の溶媒に対する溶解性が良好になる。一方、フッ化ビニリデン重合体中の含フッ素アルキルビニル化合物由来の構造単位の量が60質量%以下であると、フッ化ビニリデン由来の構造の量が十分に多くなり、フッ化ビニリデン由来の物性が発現しやすくなる。フッ化ビニリデン重合体中の含フッ素アルキルビニル化合物由来の構造単位の量は、例えば19F-NMRによる分析等によって特定可能である。 On the other hand, when the total amount of the structural unit derived from vinylidene fluoride and the structural unit derived from the fluorine-containing alkyl vinyl compound is 100% by mass, the amount of the structural unit derived from the fluorine-containing alkyl vinyl compound in the vinylidene fluoride polymer is 25 to 60% by mass is preferable, 30 to 49% by mass is more preferable, and 32 to 45% by mass is even more preferable. When the amount of the structural unit derived from the fluorine-containing alkyl compound in the vinylidene fluoride polymer is 25% by mass or more, the solubility in the below-described solvent is improved. On the other hand, when the amount of the structural unit derived from the fluorine-containing alkyl vinyl compound in the vinylidene fluoride polymer is 60% by mass or less, the amount of the structure derived from the vinylidene fluoride is sufficiently increased, and the physical properties derived from the vinylidene fluoride are improved. easier to manifest. The amount of the structural unit derived from the fluorine-containing alkyl vinyl compound in the vinylidene fluoride polymer can be specified by, for example, 19 F-NMR analysis.
 上記含フッ素アルキルビニル化合物は、ビニル基および含フッ素アルキル基を有する化合物であればよく、フッ化ビニリデン重合体は、含フッ素アルキルビニル化合物由来の構成単位を一種のみ含んでいてもよく、二種以上含んでいてもよい。含フッ素アルキルビニル化合物由来の例には、フッ化ビニル、トリフルオロエチレン、テトラフルオロエチレン、クロロトリフルオロエチレン、ヘキサフルオロプロピレン、フルオロアルキルビニルエーテル、およびパーフルオロメチルビニルエーテルに代表されるパーフルオロアルキルビニルエーテル等が含まれる。これらのうち、後述の要件(B)や要件(C)を満たしやすくなる観点で、テトラフルオロエチレン、クロロトリフルオロエチレンおよびヘキサフルオロプロピレンが好ましく、ヘキサフルオロプロピレンが特に好ましい。 The fluorine-containing alkylvinyl compound may be a compound having a vinyl group and a fluorine-containing alkyl group, and the vinylidene fluoride polymer may contain only one structural unit derived from the fluorine-containing alkylvinyl compound, or two It may contain more than Examples derived from fluorine-containing alkyl vinyl compounds include vinyl fluoride, trifluoroethylene, tetrafluoroethylene, chlorotrifluoroethylene, hexafluoropropylene, fluoroalkyl vinyl ether, and perfluoroalkyl vinyl ether represented by perfluoromethyl vinyl ether. is included. Among these, tetrafluoroethylene, chlorotrifluoroethylene and hexafluoropropylene are preferred, and hexafluoropropylene is particularly preferred, from the viewpoint of easily satisfying requirements (B) and (C) described below.
 また、上述のように、フッ化ビニリデン重合体は、フッ化ビニリデンおよび含フッ素アルキルビニル化合物以外のモノマー(以下、「その他のモノマー」とも称する)由来の構造単位を有していてもよい。その他のモノマーの例には、不飽和塩基酸および不飽和塩基酸エステル等が含まれる。 Further, as described above, the vinylidene fluoride polymer may have structural units derived from monomers (hereinafter also referred to as "other monomers") other than vinylidene fluoride and fluorine-containing alkyl vinyl compounds. Examples of other monomers include unsaturated basic acids and unsaturated basic acid esters.
 不飽和塩基酸は、不飽和カルボン酸またはその誘導体であればよく、その例には、1つ以上のカルボキシル基が、炭素数1以上6以下の直鎖状または分岐鎖状の不飽和アルキレン基によって結合された化合物が含まれる。不飽和塩基酸のより具体的な例には、アクリル酸、メタクリル酸、クロトン酸、マレイン酸、フマル酸、イタコン酸、およびシトラコン酸等が含まれる。 The unsaturated basic acid may be an unsaturated carboxylic acid or a derivative thereof, examples of which include linear or branched unsaturated alkylene groups in which one or more carboxyl groups have 1 to 6 carbon atoms. Included are compounds bound by More specific examples of unsaturated basic acids include acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, crotonic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, itaconic acid, citraconic acid, and the like.

 ここで、上記フッ化ビニリデン重合体は、ASTM D3418に準拠した示差走査熱量測定により得られるDSC曲線の60℃以上100℃未満の範囲に、ピークトップを有する(要件(B))。 Here, the vinylidene fluoride polymer has a peak top in the range of 60°C to less than 100°C in the DSC curve obtained by differential scanning calorimetry in accordance with ASTM D3418 (requirement (B)).
 DSC曲線は、ASTM D3418に準拠して温度を変化させながら示差走査熱量測定を行って、得られる曲線である。測定の際の温度範囲は、通常20℃~230℃とすることができる。また、本明細書では、ベースラインに対して吸熱側に凸である測定値群をピークとみなす。なお、示差走査熱量測定におけるベースラインの定義を以下に示す。40℃以上41℃以下の範囲にある複数の測定点の熱流束の平均値および温度の平均値をそれぞれ算出する。同様に120℃以上121℃以下の範囲にある複数の測定点の熱流束の平均値および温度の平均値をそれぞれ算出する。このように算出された40℃以上41℃以下の範囲にある、複数の測定点の平均値と、120℃以上121℃以下の範囲にある、複数の測定点の平均値との2点を結ぶ直線をベースラインとする。なお、示差走査熱量測定では、各温度範囲(40℃以上41℃以下、および120℃以上121℃以下)にある測定点が3点以上となるように測定することが望ましい。 A DSC curve is a curve obtained by performing differential scanning calorimetry while changing the temperature in accordance with ASTM D3418. The temperature range for the measurement can be usually 20°C to 230°C. Also, in this specification, a group of measured values that are convex on the endothermic side with respect to the baseline are regarded as peaks. The definition of baseline in differential scanning calorimetry is shown below. An average value of heat flux and an average value of temperature at a plurality of measurement points in the range of 40° C. or higher and 41° C. or lower are calculated. Similarly, the average value of the heat flux and the average value of the temperature at a plurality of measurement points within the range of 120° C. or higher and 121° C. or lower are calculated. Connect two points, the average value of a plurality of measurement points in the range of 40° C. or higher and 41° C. or lower calculated in this way, and the average value of a plurality of measurement points in the range of 120° C. or higher and 121° C. or lower. Use a straight line as the baseline. In the differential scanning calorimetry, it is desirable to measure at three or more points in each temperature range (40° C. or higher and 41° C. or lower and 120° C. or higher and 121° C. or lower).
 ここで、フッ化ビニリデン重合体が、上記DSC曲線の60℃以上100℃未満の範囲にピークトップを有すると、フッ化ビニリデン重合体が60℃以上100℃未満で軟化したり、溶融したりしやすくなる。つまり、当該温度範囲でフッ化ビニリデン重合体の分子鎖の拡散運動が速くなることから、溶媒への膨潤および脱絡み合いが促進され、後述の溶媒に容易に溶解しやすくなる。なお、フッ化ビニリデン重合体は、上記DSC曲線において、60℃以上90℃未満の範囲にピークトップを有することが、より好ましい。 Here, when the vinylidene fluoride polymer has a peak top in the range of 60°C or higher and lower than 100°C in the DSC curve, the vinylidene fluoride polymer softens or melts at 60°C or higher and lower than 100°C. easier. In other words, the diffusion motion of the molecular chains of the vinylidene fluoride polymer becomes faster in this temperature range, which promotes swelling and deentangling in the solvent, and facilitates dissolution in the later-described solvent. It is more preferable that the vinylidene fluoride polymer has a peak top in the range of 60° C. or more and less than 90° C. in the DSC curve.
 フッ化ビニリデン重合体を、DSC曲線が60℃以上100℃未満の範囲にピークトップを有するように調整するためには、フッ化ビニリデン重合体中のフッ化ビニリデン由来の構造単位の量、および含フッ素アルキルビニル化合物由来の構造単位の量を上述の範囲に調整することが好ましい。 In order to adjust the vinylidene fluoride polymer so that the DSC curve has a peak top in the range of 60° C. or more and less than 100° C., the amount of structural units derived from vinylidene fluoride in the vinylidene fluoride polymer and It is preferable to adjust the amount of the structural unit derived from the fluoroalkylvinyl compound within the range described above.
 また、上記フッ化ビニリデン重合体は、X線回折測定により得られるX線回折パターンにおいて、回折角度が10°以上19.9°以下の範囲に少なくとも1つの極大値を有し、かつ回折角度22.5°以上30°以下の範囲における最大回折強度が、回折角度10°以上19.9°以下の範囲における最大回折強度以下である(要件(C))。 In addition, the vinylidene fluoride polymer has at least one maximum value in the range of a diffraction angle of 10° or more and 19.9° or less in an X-ray diffraction pattern obtained by X-ray diffraction measurement, and a diffraction angle of 22 The maximum diffraction intensity in the range of .5° or more and 30° or less is equal to or less than the maximum diffraction intensity in the diffraction angle range of 10° or more and 19.9° or less (requirement (C)).
 ここで、上記X線回折測定は、JIS K0131:1996に基づいて行う。本明細書において、回折角度が10°以上19.9°以下の範囲に少なくとも1つの極大値を有するとは、X線回折パターンがピークを有し、かつ回折角度10°以上19.9°以下の範囲に、当該ピークの極大値を有することをいう。X線回折パターンがピークを有するかは、以下のように判断する。まず、下記に示すように、ベースラインを特定する。そして、当該ベースライン上の点の回折強度と、同一の回折角度におけるX線回折パターン上の回折強度とを比較する。X線回折パターン上の回折強度が連続して5点以上、対応するベースライン上の回折強度の1.5倍以上の値を示す場合に、当該X線回折パターンがピークを有すると判断する。また、X線回折パターン上の回折強度が連続して5点以上、ベースライン上の回折強度の1.5倍以上となる測定値群における極大値を特定し、当該極大値が、回折角度10°以上19.9°以下の範囲に入るかを判断する。 Here, the above X-ray diffraction measurement is performed based on JIS K0131:1996. In this specification, having at least one maximum value in the range of 10° or more and 19.9° or less of the diffraction angle means that the X-ray diffraction pattern has a peak and the diffraction angle is 10° or more and 19.9° or less. It means having the maximum value of the peak in the range of . Whether or not the X-ray diffraction pattern has a peak is judged as follows. First, a baseline is identified, as shown below. Then, the diffraction intensity at a point on the baseline is compared with the diffraction intensity on the X-ray diffraction pattern at the same diffraction angle. The X-ray diffraction pattern is determined to have a peak when the diffraction intensity on the X-ray diffraction pattern shows 5 or more consecutive points and 1.5 times or more of the corresponding diffraction intensity on the baseline. In addition, the diffraction intensity on the X-ray diffraction pattern is continuously 5 points or more, and the maximum value in the measured value group at which the diffraction intensity on the baseline is 1.5 times or more is specified, and the maximum value is at the diffraction angle 10. It is judged whether it falls within the range of 19.9° or less.
 本明細書では、X線回折測定におけるベースラインを、以下のように定義する。回折角度10.0°以上10.1°未満の範囲にある複数の測定点の回折角度の平均値および回折強度の平均値をそれぞれ算出する。同様に回折角度30.0°以上30.1°未満の範囲にある複数の測定点の回折角度の平均値および回折強度の平均値をそれぞれ算出する。そして、このように算出された回折角度・回折強度の値2点を結ぶ直線をベースラインとする。測定精度の観点からベースラインを算出するための複数の測定点の平均値、すなわち10.0°以上10.1°未満の測定点の平均値、および30.0°以上30.1°未満の範囲の測定点の平均値は、それぞれ5点以上の平均値を用いることが望ましい。また、測定に用いるサンプル重量が0.1g以上であると、精度の良い測定値が得られやすい。 In this specification, the baseline in X-ray diffraction measurement is defined as follows. An average value of diffraction angles and an average value of diffraction intensities at a plurality of measurement points within a diffraction angle range of 10.0° or more and less than 10.1° are calculated. Similarly, the average value of the diffraction angles and the average value of the diffraction intensity at a plurality of measurement points within the range of diffraction angles of 30.0° or more and less than 30.1° are calculated. Then, a straight line connecting two points of diffraction angle/diffraction intensity thus calculated is taken as a baseline. The average value of multiple measurement points for calculating the baseline from the viewpoint of measurement accuracy, that is, the average value of the measurement points of 10.0 ° or more and less than 10.1 °, and 30.0 ° or more and less than 30.1 ° It is desirable to use an average value of 5 or more points for each of the measurement points in the range. Moreover, when the weight of the sample used for measurement is 0.1 g or more, it is easy to obtain a highly accurate measurement value.
 フッ化ビニリデン重合体のX線回折パターンは、フッ化ビニリデン重合体の結晶化状態を表す。また、X線回折パターンの回折強度の極大値の位置は、結晶構造の種類によって異なる。 The X-ray diffraction pattern of a vinylidene fluoride polymer represents the crystallization state of the vinylidene fluoride polymer. Also, the position of the maximum value of the diffraction intensity in the X-ray diffraction pattern differs depending on the type of crystal structure.
 例えば、後述の実施例におけるフッ化ビニリデン重合体D(フッ化ビニリデンの単独重合体)のように、回折角度10°以上30°以下の領域に多数の極大値を有する場合、フッ化ビニリデン重合体が、多くの結晶構造を含んでいるといえる(図1参照)。このようなフッ化ビニリデン単独重合体を、溶媒に溶解させるためには、大きなエネルギーが必要となる。また本発明者らの検討によれば、特に、フッ化ビニリデン重合体が、回折角度22.5°以上30°以下の範囲に現れる結晶構造を多く含む場合に、後述の溶媒に対する溶解性が低いことが明らかとなった。 For example, when the vinylidene fluoride polymer D (homopolymer of vinylidene fluoride) in Examples described later has a large number of maxima in the diffraction angle region of 10° or more and 30° or less, the vinylidene fluoride polymer can be said to contain many crystal structures (see Fig. 1). A large amount of energy is required to dissolve such a vinylidene fluoride homopolymer in a solvent. Further, according to the study of the present inventors, especially when the vinylidene fluoride polymer contains many crystal structures appearing in the range of diffraction angles of 22.5° or more and 30° or less, the solubility in the solvent described later is low. It became clear.
 一方、後述の実施例におけるフッ化ビニリデン重合体Gのように、X線回折パターンに極大値を有さない場合には、フッ化ビニリデン重合体が結晶構造を有さず、ゴム質となる(図1参照)。このようなフッ化ビニリデン重合体では、その内部に溶媒が入り込み難く、フッ化ビニリデン重合体の溶媒に対する溶解性が低くなる。 On the other hand, when the vinylidene fluoride polymer G in Examples described later does not have a maximum value in the X-ray diffraction pattern, the vinylidene fluoride polymer does not have a crystal structure and becomes rubbery ( See Figure 1). In such a vinylidene fluoride polymer, it is difficult for the solvent to enter therein, and the solubility of the vinylidene fluoride polymer in the solvent is low.
 これに対し、回折角度が10°以上19.9°以下の範囲に少なくとも1つの極大値を有し、かつ回折角度22.5°以上30°以下の範囲における最大回折強度が、回折角度10°以上19.9°以下の範囲における最大回折強度以下であるフッ化ビニリデン重合体では、後述の溶媒に対する溶解性が格段に高くなる。このようなフッ化ビニリデン重合体では、上述の溶媒に対する溶解性が低い結晶構造が少なく、かつ適度に溶媒が入り込みやすいことから、溶媒に対する溶解性が高いと考えられる。 On the other hand, the diffraction angle has at least one maximum in the range of 10 ° or more and 19.9 ° or less, and the maximum diffraction intensity in the diffraction angle range of 22.5 ° or more and 30 ° or less is 10 °. A vinylidene fluoride polymer whose diffraction intensity is equal to or less than the maximum diffraction intensity in the range of 19.9° or less has remarkably high solubility in the solvent described later. Such a vinylidene fluoride polymer is considered to have a high solubility in solvents because it has few crystal structures with low solubility in the solvents described above and is moderately easily penetrated by the solvent.
 ここで、上記要件(C)を満たすフッ化ビニリデン重合体は、フッ化ビニリデン重合体中のフッ化ビニリデン由来の構造単位の量、および含フッ素アルキルビニル化合物由来の構造単位の量を上述の範囲に調整することで得られやすい。また、回折角度が10°以上19.9°以下の範囲に極大値が現れる結晶構造を崩さないような条件で、フッ化ビニリデン重合体を調製したり、調製後の処理を行ったりすることが好ましい。例えば上記結晶構造を崩す処理の例には、調製したフッ化ビニリデン重合体をアセトン等の溶媒に溶解させる処理が含まれる。 Here, the vinylidene fluoride polymer that satisfies the above requirement (C) has the amount of structural units derived from vinylidene fluoride in the vinylidene fluoride polymer and the amount of structural units derived from the fluorine-containing alkyl vinyl compound within the above ranges. can be easily obtained by adjusting the In addition, the vinylidene fluoride polymer may be prepared and post-preparation treatment may be performed under conditions that do not destroy the crystal structure in which the maximum diffraction angle appears in the range of 10° or more and 19.9° or less. preferable. For example, an example of the treatment for destroying the crystal structure includes a treatment of dissolving the prepared vinylidene fluoride polymer in a solvent such as acetone.
 上記要件(A)~(C)を満たすフッ化ビニリデン重合体の重量平均分子量は、10000以上2500000以下が好ましく、50000以上2000000以下がより好ましく、100000以上1500000以下がさらに好ましい。上記重量平均分子量は、ゲルパーミエーションクロマトグラフィー(GPC)によって測定される、ポリスチレン換算値である。フッ化ビニリデン重合体の重量平均分子量が上記範囲であると、フッ化ビニリデン重合体が後述の溶媒にさらに溶解しやすくなる。 The weight average molecular weight of the vinylidene fluoride polymer satisfying the above requirements (A) to (C) is preferably 10,000 to 2,500,000, more preferably 50,000 to 2,000,000, and even more preferably 100,000 to 1,500,000. The weight average molecular weight is a polystyrene equivalent value measured by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). When the weight-average molecular weight of the vinylidene fluoride polymer is within the above range, the vinylidene fluoride polymer is more easily dissolved in the below-described solvent.
 なお、上述の要件(A)~(C)を満たすフッ化ビニリデン重合体は、フッ化ビニリデンと、含フッ素アルキルビニル化合物と、必要に応じて他の化合物と、を公知の方法で共重合させて調製することができる。これらを共重合する方法の例には、懸濁重合、乳化重合、溶液重合等が含まれる。ここで、上述の要件(B)および要件(C)を満たすフッ化ビニリデン重合体が得られやすいという観点で乳化重合が好ましい。乳化重合によって共重合したフッ化ビニリデン重合体は一次粒子径が小さくなるので、分散しやすくなりかつ分散後の安定性が向上する。 The vinylidene fluoride polymer satisfying the above requirements (A) to (C) is obtained by copolymerizing vinylidene fluoride, a fluorine-containing alkyl vinyl compound, and, if necessary, other compounds by a known method. can be prepared by Examples of methods for copolymerizing these include suspension polymerization, emulsion polymerization, solution polymerization, and the like. Here, emulsion polymerization is preferable from the viewpoint that a vinylidene fluoride polymer that satisfies the requirements (B) and (C) described above can be easily obtained. Since the vinylidene fluoride polymer copolymerized by emulsion polymerization has a small primary particle size, it is easy to disperse and the stability after dispersion is improved.
 ・溶媒
 フッ化ビニリデン重合体溶液が含む溶媒は、分子量100以上であり、かつエーテル、ケトン、およびエステルから選択される少なくとも1種の構造を有する親和性溶媒を少なくとも含んでいればよく、本発明の目的および効果を損なわない範囲で、他の溶媒を一部に含んでいてもよい。ただし、溶媒全量に対する、親和性溶媒の量は、80質量%以上が好ましく、90質量%以上がより好ましい。
Solvent The solvent contained in the vinylidene fluoride polymer solution may contain at least an affinity solvent having a molecular weight of 100 or more and having at least one structure selected from ethers, ketones, and esters. Other solvents may be partially contained within a range that does not impair the purpose and effect of the above. However, the amount of the affinity solvent is preferably 80% by mass or more, more preferably 90% by mass or more, relative to the total amount of the solvent.
 上記親和性溶媒の分子量が100以上であると、極性基であるエーテル、ケトン、およびエステルを有している溶媒であっても極性が適度に低下するため、上述のフッ化ビニリデン重合体との親和性が高まる。親和性溶媒の分子量は、100以上251以下が好ましく、100以上201以下がより好ましく、100以上161以下がさらに好ましい。 When the molecular weight of the affinity solvent is 100 or more, the polarity of the solvent having ether, ketone, and ester polar groups is moderately lowered, so that the above-mentioned vinylidene fluoride polymer and Affinity increases. The molecular weight of the affinity solvent is preferably 100 or more and 251 or less, more preferably 100 or more and 201 or less, and even more preferably 100 or more and 161 or less.

When the octanol/water partition coefficient of the affinity solvent is 0 or more, the water content of the vinylidene fluoride polymer solution becomes low, and the stability of the vinylidene fluoride polymer solution tends to increase. Note that the octanol/water partition coefficient LogP is the concentration Co of the affinity solvent in the octanol phase and is the common logarithm (Log(Co/Cw)) of the ratio of the affinity of the solvent to the concentration Cw of the solvent.

Measurement of physical properties of vinylidene fluoride polymer For the vinylidene fluoride polymers A to G obtained by the above method, DSC curves and X-ray diffraction patterns were obtained based on the following methods.
 (DSC曲線)
 各フッ化ビニリデン重合体について、ASTM D3418に準拠して、メトラー社製STARe DSC1(装置)により、20℃から230°の範囲について示差走査熱量測定を行い、DSC曲線を作成した。昇温速度は10℃/min、50mL/minの窒素フロー下で測定を実施した。
 また、ベースラインに対して吸熱側に凸である測定値群をピークとみなし、測定値群がなす曲線の極大値に相当する測定値をピークトップとした。なお、ベースラインは、以下のように特定した。

(DSC curve)
For each vinylidene fluoride polymer, differential scanning calorimetry was performed in the range from 20° C. to 230° in accordance with ASTM D3418 using a Mettler STARe DSC1 (apparatus) to create a DSC curve. The measurement was performed under a temperature elevation rate of 10° C./min and a nitrogen flow of 50 mL/min.
A group of measured values convex to the endothermic side with respect to the baseline was regarded as a peak, and a measured value corresponding to the maximum value of a curve formed by the group of measured values was defined as the peak top. The baseline was specified as follows.
For the three measurement points in the range of 40° C. or higher and 41° C. or lower and the three measurement points in the range of 120° C. or higher and 121° C. or lower, the average value of the heat flux and the average value of the temperature in each temperature section was calculated.

 (X線回折測定)
 装置としては、フィリップス社製X‘Pert―PROを用いた。光学系はブラッグ・ブレンターノ型集中光学系、X線の発生にはCu管球を用いて、電圧値は45kV、電流値は40mAとした。X線はNiフィルターを用いて単色化しており、可動スリット(照射面積は1cm×1cm)を用いた。サンプルの固定が必要な場合には、ポリイミドカプトンテープを用いた。
 上記のような装置条件のもと、JISK0131:1996に基づいて各フッ化ビニリデン重合体のX線回折測定を行った。各測定における測定範囲は10.00°から60.00°、スキャンステップ数は1°あたり0.026とし、Time per stepは86.19/秒とした。また、各フッ化ビニリデン重合体のX線回折パターンを図1に示す。得られたX線回折パターンにおいて、回折角度が10°以上19.9°以下の範囲に極大値があるか、および回折角度22.5°以上30°以下の範囲における最大回折強度が、回折角度10°以上19.9°以下の範囲における最大回折強度以下であるか、を確認した。
(X-ray diffraction measurement)
As an apparatus, Philips X'Pert-PRO was used. The optical system was a Bragg-Brentano concentrated optical system, a Cu tube was used to generate X-rays, the voltage value was 45 kV, and the current value was 40 mA. The X-ray was monochromatic using a Ni filter, and a movable slit (irradiation area: 1 cm x 1 cm) was used. Polyimide Kapton tape was used when sample fixation was required.
X-ray diffraction measurement of each vinylidene fluoride polymer was performed based on JISK0131:1996 under the apparatus conditions as described above. The measurement range in each measurement was 10.00° to 60.00°, the number of scanning steps was 0.026 per 1°, and the Time per step was 86.19/sec. FIG. 1 shows the X-ray diffraction pattern of each vinylidene fluoride polymer. In the obtained X-ray diffraction pattern, whether there is a maximum value in the diffraction angle range of 10 ° or more and 19.9 ° or less and the maximum diffraction intensity in the diffraction angle range of 22.5 ° or more and 30 ° or less is determined by the diffraction angle It was confirmed whether the diffraction intensity was equal to or less than the maximum diffraction intensity in the range of 10° or more and 19.9° or less.
 具体的には、X線回折測定における回折角度10.0°以上10.1°未満の範囲にある複数の測定点の回折角度の平均値および回折強度の平均値をそれぞれ算出した。同様に回折角度30.0°以上30.1°未満の範囲にある複数の測定点の回折角度の平均値および回折強度の平均値をそれぞれ算出した。そして、このように算出された回折角度・回折強度の値2点を結ぶ直線をベースラインとした。そして、当該ベースライン上の点の回折強度と、同一の回折角度におけるX線回折パターン上の回折強度とを比較し、X線回折パターン上の回折強度が連続して5点以上、ベースライン上の回折強度の1.5倍以上の値を示す場合に、当該X線回折パターンがピークを有すると判断した。さらに、X線回折パターン上の回折強度が連続して5点以上、ベースライン上の回折強度の1.5倍以上となる測定値群における極大値を特定し、当該極大値が、回折角度10°以上19.9°以下の範囲に入るかを特定した。 Specifically, the average value of the diffraction angle and the average value of the diffraction intensity at a plurality of measurement points in the range of diffraction angles of 10.0° or more and less than 10.1° in the X-ray diffraction measurement were calculated. Similarly, the average value of the diffraction angles and the average value of the diffraction intensity at a plurality of measurement points within the range of diffraction angles of 30.0° or more and less than 30.1° were calculated. A straight line connecting two points of diffraction angle and diffraction intensity thus calculated was used as a baseline. Then, the diffraction intensity at the points on the baseline is compared with the diffraction intensity on the X-ray diffraction pattern at the same diffraction angle. The X-ray diffraction pattern was judged to have a peak when the value was 1.5 times or more the diffraction intensity of . Furthermore, the maximum value in the measured value group at which the diffraction intensity on the X-ray diffraction pattern is continuously 5 points or more and the diffraction intensity on the baseline is 1.5 times or more is specified, and the maximum value is at a diffraction angle of 10. It was specified whether it falls within the range of 19.9° or less.
 当該特定方法によると、例えばフッ化ビニリデン重合体FやGのX線回折パターンは回折角度10°以上19.9°以下の範囲に、測定値の回折強度が対応するベースラインの回折強度の1.5倍以上となる点が存在しないことから、極大値がないと判断した。結果を表1に示す。 According to the identification method, for example, the X-ray diffraction patterns of the vinylidene fluoride polymers F and G are in the range of diffraction angles of 10 ° or more and 19.9 ° or less, and the diffraction intensity of the measured value is 1 of the baseline diffraction intensity corresponding to It was judged that there was no maximum value because there was no point where the value was 0.5 times or more. Table 1 shows the results.

2-2. Preparation of Vinylidene Fluoride Polymer Solution The above vinylidene fluoride polymer and the above solvent were mixed in the combinations shown in Tables 3 and 4 to obtain vinylidene fluoride polymer solutions.

 測定の際には、各実施例、各比較例で使用している溶媒のヘーズを0とし、サンプルのヘーズを導出した。
 サンプルに分離が見られる場合や、未溶解の状態である場合には正確なヘーズを導出することが出来ないため、測定不可(表4では「-」と示す)とした。
(Haze measurement)

Haze value = (Td/Tt) x 100 (%)
At the time of measurement, the haze of the solvent used in each example and each comparative example was assumed to be 0, and the haze of the sample was derived.
When separation was observed in the sample or when it was in an undissolved state, it was impossible to measure the haze (indicated by "-" in Table 4) because accurate haze could not be derived.

 上記表3に示されるように、上述の要件(A)~(C)を満たすフッ化ビニリデン重合体と、上述の親和性溶媒を含む溶媒とを組み合わせた場合には、得られたフッ化ビニリデン重合体溶液が透明であり、かつ流動性も良好であった。さらにヘーズ値も低かった(実施例1~21)。なお、表4に示されるように、フッ化ビニリデン重合体が、上記要件(A)~(C)を満たしたとしても、溶媒が親和性溶媒を含まない場合、具体的には溶媒の分子量が100未満である場合には、エーテル、ケトン、エステルを持つ溶媒であっても、極性が過度に高く上述のポリマーとの親和性が低いために一次粒子が凝集し、白濁が生じた(比較例11)。また、分子量が100以上の溶媒であっても、エーテル、ケトン、エステルのいずれも含まない溶媒は、極性が過度に低くポリマーが溶解しなかった(比較例17,18)。 As shown in Table 3 above, when a vinylidene fluoride polymer satisfying the above requirements (A) to (C) is combined with a solvent containing the above-mentioned affinity solvent, the resulting vinylidene fluoride The polymer solution was transparent and had good fluidity. Furthermore, the haze value was also low (Examples 1 to 21). As shown in Table 4, even if the vinylidene fluoride polymer satisfies the above requirements (A) to (C), when the solvent does not contain an affinity solvent, specifically the molecular weight of the solvent is If it is less than 100, even if the solvent has ether, ketone, or ester, the polarity is too high and the affinity with the above polymer is low, so the primary particles aggregate and cloudiness occurs (Comparative Example 11). Moreover, even if the solvent had a molecular weight of 100 or more, the solvent containing neither ether, ketone, nor ester had excessively low polarity and did not dissolve the polymer (Comparative Examples 17 and 18).
 また、要件(A)を満たさないフッ化ビニリデン重合体Dを用いた比較例2、7、13、20、23では、沈殿や分離が生じやすかった。溶媒と十分に相溶しなかったことが一因として考えられる。また、要件(A)を満たしたとしても、要件(B)を満たさないフッ化ビニリデン重合体CまたはEを用いた比較例1、3、6、8、12、14、19、25では、ゲル化や分離が生じた。この場合も、溶媒と十分に相溶できなかったと考えられる。さらに、要件(A)および(B)は満たすものの、要件(C)を満たさないフッ化ビニリデン重合体Fや、要件(B)および(C)を満たさないフッ化ビニリデン重合体Gを用いた比較例4、5、9、10、15、16、21、22、24、26では、溶媒によっては未溶解物が生じた。フッ化ビニリデン重合体FやGはゴム質状であり、溶媒が内部に入り込みにくかったことが一因として考えられる。 In addition, in Comparative Examples 2, 7, 13, 20, and 23 using the vinylidene fluoride polymer D that did not satisfy the requirement (A), precipitation and separation were likely to occur. One possible reason is that it was not sufficiently compatible with the solvent. In Comparative Examples 1, 3, 6, 8, 12, 14, 19, and 25 using vinylidene fluoride polymer C or E, which does not satisfy requirement (B) even if requirement (A) is satisfied, gel separation and separation occurred. Also in this case, it is considered that the compound was not sufficiently compatible with the solvent. Furthermore, a comparison using a vinylidene fluoride polymer F that satisfies the requirements (A) and (B) but does not satisfy the requirement (C) and a vinylidene fluoride polymer G that does not satisfy the requirements (B) and (C) In Examples 4, 5, 9, 10, 15, 16, 21, 22, 24 and 26, undissolved substances were generated depending on the solvent. One reason for this is considered to be that the vinylidene fluoride polymers F and G are rubber-like, and it is difficult for the solvent to enter inside.
